About

Meet Rachael from Rachael XO

Finding beauty in everyday life; enjoying motherhood, strengthening family relationships, creating a loving home through homemaking, & creating memories with delicious & easy from scratch meals.

With so much uncertainty in the world, & seasons in life consistently changing, it’s no wonder why it can be so easy to be full of doubt, confusion, & fear. Life is what we make of it, & how we choose to spend our thoughts, and how we fill our time. I’m so passionate about helping others, and sharing what I’ve learned along the way.

It brings joy to my heart to share with you how to find joy within everyday motherhood, while deepening lasting relationships with the ones you love. Including all things homemaking, & easy and delicious from scratch cooking recipes.

I’ll even include some easy “throw together” recipes, that are less from scratch, for those busy seasons if life!

The only way you will for sure never miss out on upcoming videos is by joining our email list!

Welcome to a place of acceptance, where I share relatable content from my heart. I’m passionate about motherhood, and motivating and encouraging mothers.

Home is truly where the heart is, & love is to be shared through deepening lasting relationships, along with the beauty of homemaking.

Easy and Delicious meals, whether from scratch cooking or not, are also an expression of love. There’s nothing like sweet aromas that fill the air & our family’s tummies.

My husband, Jesse and I, have been together for over 14 years and have 4 beautiful children. We have two beautiful daughters, Mila (8) & Emma (5), and our two precious sons Jesse Jae (3) who we call JJae, & Noah (5 months). God has truly blessed our lives as a married couple, and now as a family of 6. We come from humble beginnings as a couple, and it’s absolutely amazing to see how far we’ve come.

We have been a homeschooling family from the start, and it’s one of the best decisions we have made for our family thus far. We enjoy spending time together by going for walks, playing games, watching movies, and eating good food while sharing lots of laughter.

Family is everything to us, as we are a very close family.

About Me

I’m a Arizona native, where I still live to this day. My family and I moved into my childhood home when I was only 5 months old, and now several years later I have the privilege to raise my children here too.

I have two loving parents whom I adore, and an awesome younger brother who is 5 years younger than me.

I am a life long learner, and am always in the process of learning and doing something new.

I love making food from scratch, and am usually in the process of making bread, breakfast, lunch/dinner, and desserts.

I have a passion for uplifting & encouraging others who are down, because I too know how that can feel.

I enjoy sharing with others things that are important to me and that I’m passionate about, and that I know would be helpful by benefitting others.

I absolutely love teaching others, and am excited to share what I know and am learning with you!

A few Fun Facts about me:

I may come across as an extrovert, and was all my life, but over the past 9 years have become quite an introvert. I’m a bit of an introverted mama.

I didn’t know how to cook or follow a simple recipe up until my late 20’s. Embarrassing, I know! haha

I don’t like wearing shoes, and you can always find me barefoot & probably cooking something in the kitchen lol.

I initially started my YouTube journey sharing all about portable washers & dryers, after finding out first hand how life changing they were for our then family of 3, living in an apartment.

A few Fun Facts about my Husband and I:

My husband, Jesse, saw a photo of me that his friend had, and he told him, “I’m going to marry her,” before we had even met.

Jesse always told me, “You would me an excellent teach, you should become one,” and I did. I am now a Homeschooling Mama/Teacher to 4 adorable students!

Before Jesse and I started dating we were inseparable Best Friends, and still are to this day.

We first started dating in our early 20’s.

When we first started dating, Jesse was working at his Family’s ranch as a butcher, and I became his right hand woman in butchering and selling the meat.

We have come so far within our relationship and walk with God, He has made all the difference in our lives.
